PhD projects
1. The role of Gas6 as a mediator of repair in demyelinating disease of the CNS
2. Targeting TAM receptor signalling pathways in cancer
3. TAM receptors as modulators of neuroinflammation
I have a BSc in Biochemistry from Royal Holloway and Bedford New College, University of London. I have a PhD in cardiovascular cell pharmacology from the National Heart and Lung Institute, Imperial College London, under the supervision of Prof Sir Magdi Yacoub.
I was an EU Marie Curie Postdoctoral Fellow at Lund University, Sweden, working with Prof. Björn Dahlbäck on the cellular biology of the Gas6-TAM signalling system. I continued my research work under higher postdoctoral fellowships and then as an independent investigator, until I joined the University of Portsmouth in 2009 as Senior Lecturer. I was promoted to Reader in Cell and Molecular Biology in September 2017.

1) Gas6-TAM ligand-receptor signalling and its role in normal and pathophysiological cell biology, including cancer and neurological diseases.
2) Intracellular signalling via the Tensin family proteins in normal and cancer cell biology.
